Default Utica or Albany NY shop for accident repair

Hello all,

We recently relocated from the Philly area to Albany. The car was involved in a minor accident back in May and has been in my father in laws garage. Now that the dust has settled from the move this is one of the last items to be taken care of. The car is currently in Utica NY, which is where I grew up. We live in Albany NY. Would anyone have a direction to point me in? This will need a rear bumper cover and whatever else under it repairs and is pulling slightly to the left as the rim was tagged in the accident. I'm looking for a reputable shop possibly that is familiar with more than a Camry. The pulling is really what worries me being fixed here I want the whole rear suspension inspected by someone who knows what theyre looking at.

Thank you.

Go to Hart’s Collision in East Greenbush. Talk to Alex. He has worked on several S2000s including some dent removal on mine and has also worked on my other cars a few times. Good work and he always delivers on time.

Next recommendation is Frank & Sons in Scotia. I used them once and they did good work. But go to Hart’s. I haven’t gone anywhere since I first stopped by there.

He knows Jake (Jsenclosure) on here and me. He was First recommended to me by Jake.

Oh and if you need your car fixed send a PM to jsenclosure. He can if nothing look at your car and tell you what it may need.

I have lots of oem parts to get your car straight again. Have Alex do your paint/body work at Harts Collision. I've personally used Frank and Sons Body works (The owner lives next to my parents) and I won't use them again, they're not bad per say but no one can compare to the top notch work of Harts in my opinion. PM me, I can put your car on the lift and figure out whats wrong with it

Thanks for the replies guys, I really appreciate it. Just waiting to hear back from the insurance company about getting it towed.. I work in Castleton so East Greenbush works for me.

I'm at a point where I either need to sell it or drive the wheels off it. it'll become my 3 season commuter car.

do you guys have a shop you use for other items? my jeep needs rear leafs and I don't particularly know if im ready to repeat the last time, which involved cutting into the unibody because the nuts broke off.
